John Cleese on PR - Actor John Cleese explains the basics of proportional voting. British
comedian and actor John Cleese (of Monty Python, Rat Race, A Fish

of a choice voting proportional system for British elections. Though
this segment was created on behalf of a political party in the U.K., it
is perhaps one of the better proportional voting advocacy pieces for a
lay audience in existence. The film clip is approximately 10 minutes
long and was made in 1985. [Short Version][Full Length Version]
